I am in the very early stages of the procedure (pyche eval done and first nutrition class on Tuesday) - I am excited about the possibility of getting my life back but also a little scared of the unknown. I have fought this weight all of my life and I am so tired of the fight - please tell me it is all worth it?

All mine is now official and REAL. Surgeon's office called this a.m. She said I had the fastest insurance approval she has ever seen!!! LOL (She submitted around 6pm on Tuesday, before she left for the day. The approval was on her desk when she came in the next day!) I am OFFICIALLY 10/21. I have my EDG scheduled for 10/14 and my pre op surgeon visit 10/17. ( my birthday) I start my liquid diet 10/11. And one day in there I will have my PATs and a class I have to take about the sleeve....Gonna be a busy couple of weeks!
